Definitions

  • the present invention aims to provide a lever device that can apply the biasing force of a tension spring to a lever even when the rotation angle of the movable body is small, and a work machine equipped with the same.
  • a lever device comprises a fixed body, a movable body rotatably supported on the fixed body via a first support shaft, a lever for rotating the movable body around the first support shaft, the lever being rotatably supported on a second support shaft provided on the movable body to a pressed-down position and a pulled-up position rotated upward from the pressed-down position, a tension spring for biasing the lever, and a switching mechanism for switching the direction of the biasing force of the tension spring between the pressed-down position and the pulled-up position so that the biasing force of the tension spring acts in a direction to pull down the lever at the pressed-down position and acts in a direction to pull up the lever at the pulled-up position, the switching mechanism being a rotating member that rotates integrally with the lever around the second support shaft,
  • the link has a rotating member provided with a first spring hook and a first engagement part arranged at a position sandwiching the second support shaft when viewed from the axial direction of the third support shaft
  • the side to which the first spring hook portion moves when the lever is pulled up and operated is defined as the first side
  • the side opposite to the first side is defined as the second side
  • the first spring hook portion moves to the first side
  • the first engagement portion and the second engagement portion move to the second side
  • the second spring hook portion moves to the first side
  • the first spring hook portion moves to the second side
  • the first engagement portion and the second engagement portion move to the first side
  • the movable body may have a support tube that supports the second support shaft so that it can rotate freely around its axis, the lever may be attached to the second support shaft on one side of the support tube in the axial direction, and the guide plate may be fixed to the second support shaft on the other side of the support tube in the axial direction.
  • the lever may be an operation lock lever that switches an actuator provided on the work machine between an operable state and an inoperable state.
  • the second spring hook portion moves to the side to which the first spring hook portion moves due to the rotation of the link accompanying the movement of the first engagement portion by operating the lever, so that the central axis of the tension spring can be moved away from the center of the second support shaft to an appropriate position in the pressed-down position and the pulled-up position, and the biasing force of the tension spring on the lever can be applied even when the rotation angle of the movable body is small.

  • FIG. FIG. 23 is an enlarged view of the switching mechanism in FIG. 22 .
  • FIG. 1 is a schematic side view showing the overall configuration of a work machine 1 according to this embodiment.
  • a backhoe which is a rotating work machine, is shown as an example of the work machine 1.
  • the work machine 1 comprises a machine body (swivel base) 2, a traveling device 3, and a work device 4.
  • the machine body 2 is equipped with a driver's seat 6 where the operator (driver) sits, and a four-poster rope 15.
  • the rope 15 is a canopy type with a roof 19.
  • the movable body 32 is provided with the left steering lever 23L, the remote control valve 24, the armrest 26L, the detection switch 51, the operation lock lever 30, the tension spring 47, the switching mechanism 33, and the guide plate 52.
  • the movable body 32 is supported by a first support shaft 39 provided on the fixed body 31 so as to be rotatable about its axis.
  • a through hole 82 is formed in the lower part of the first wall part 53 of the movable body 32, through which the left end side of the second spring hook part 80 is inserted.
  • the lower edge of the through hole 82 is formed in a substantially arc shape centered on the third support shaft 77, and the upper edge is formed in a substantially straight line. Since the biasing force of the tension spring 47 acts on the second spring hook part 80 in a direction that pulls the second spring hook part 80 upward, the upper edge of the through hole 82 is formed in a straight line to provide a gap between the upper edge and the second spring hook part 80 so that the second spring hook part 80 is not pressed against the upper edge of the through hole 82.
  • a preferred embodiment of the present invention provides a lever device 27 and a work machine 1 as described in the following items.
  • the tension spring 47 is hung between the first spring hook portion 74 and the second spring hook portion 80, the link 76 being arranged so that the first engaging portion 75 and the second engaging portion 81 engage with each other, and the second engaging portion 81 moves and rotates about the third support shaft 77 as the first engaging portion 75 moves due to the rotation of the rotating member 69 about the second support shaft 72, thereby moving the second spring hook portion 80 to the same side as the side on which the first spring hook portion 74 moves.
  • the lever device 27 according to item 3 can also appropriately separate the central axis of the tension spring 47 from the center of the second support shaft 72 at the pushed-down position S1 and the pulled-up position S2, so that the biasing force of the tension spring 47 on the lever 30 can be applied even when the rotation angle of the movable body 32 is small.
  • a lever device 27 comprising: a guide body 43 provided on the fixed body 31; and a guide plate 52 having a guide groove 83 into which the guide body 43 fits and rotating integrally with the lever 30 around the second support shaft 72, the guide groove 83 having a first groove portion 83a that restricts the movable body 32 at the lowered position P1 from rotating in the raising direction and allows the lever 30 to rotate in the pulling-up direction, a second groove portion 83b that allows the movable body 32 to rotate by operation of the lever 30, and a third groove portion 83c that restricts the movable body 32 at the raised position P2 from rotating in the raising direction and allows the lever 30 to rotate around the second support shaft 72, and the third groove portion 83c has a locking portion 83f that restricts the movable body 32 from rotating in the lowering direction from the raised position P2 when the lever 30 is at the pulled-up position S2.
  • the movable body 32 has a support tube 66 that supports the second support shaft 72 so that it can rotate freely around its axis, the lever 30 is attached to the second support shaft 72 on one side of the axial direction of the support tube 66, and the guide plate 52 is fixed to the second support shaft 72 on the other side of the axial direction of the support tube 66.
  • the lever device 27 according to item 6 makes it easy to assemble the guide plate 52 to the movable body 32.
  • the working machine 1 of this embodiment is equipped with a lever device 27 described in any one of items 1 to 6.
  • lever 30 is an operation lock lever that switches an actuator provided in the work machine 1 between an operable state and an inoperable state.
  • the biasing force of the tension spring 47 on the lock lever can be applied even when the rotation angle of the movable body 32 is small.
